    My very good surgeon left me with a tiny amount of cleavage. A small thing (in every way) but very useful and much appreciated!

    Tennille and Afraser, thanks for the input.  Living in Brisbane the summers are humid and I live in singlets. Will this be doable with prosthetic.

    Yes you can do prostetics in singlets. I do because of the lace panel bra. I dont usually get any more sweaty than with a normal bra. Just need a good cotten pocket.

    Thanks Tennille, somehow I imagine being out in public and bending over and having the fake boob fall to the ground lol.

    Hi everyone, thank you so much for your stories, it's so reassuring to hear from you. Saw the Onc yesterday who said chemo & rads then recovery time before any potential recon. The public system usually does recon at 2 yrs, so that takes the pressure off making more decisions than I can cope with at the moment.  Funny how you think you're coping ok but your brain just will not work logically. Will be "glad" when the surgeon gives me a date. Hope you all have a lovely day, Tracey xXx

    I had double mastectomy in Oct 2012 no reconstruction, I didnt want and still dont want... I was 18/20DD/E  I lost 8kgs in my surgery and I have not looked back all the problems I had with heavy breasts is gone.... 
    I run a group on facebook called Breast Cancer and Beyond for all those who are still deciding to reconstruct or not....

    Hi, i had my mastectomy  on 14/6 /17 and not considered  reconstruction.
    I'm wearing an ahh bra with double the padding on left side and I don't see a reason for reconstruction, i dont feel any less of a women at all, I cannot think of any further ops at this point, my size was 14c...have lost 4-5 kgs in the last 6 months without trying. ..the taste buds had gone and only ate  to keep the energy levels..
